	Piata Unirii Tip Rating:

Updated By puuma on February 28, 2005

Timisoara Page by puuma

n my opinion Piata Unirii is number one attraction in Timisoara. Actually, I'd rank Piata Unirii the most charming square I've ever seen! It is truly beautiful and unique square surrounded by intresting, old and colorful buildings, including two churches (a Catholic Dome and a Serbian Orthodox Church.) To make it all perfect, there many cafes to sit and have a drink - or even better, a Romanian beer.

The Metropolin Cathedral in Timisoara is the biggest and the most beautiful in the whole city. It is situated in the city Center in Victory square. It is one of the most importent tourist atracctions in the city. It was built between 1936 to 1946 after the desings of the architect Ioan Traianescu. IT is very impressive inside the cathedral too.

Timisoara has many parks, of which the most important are the People’s park (1868), the Central park (the second half of the last century), the Doina park, the Plevna park (after 1900) and Rosarium (the Roses Garden), the Alpinet Park and the Children’s Park. Sit on the bench and eat ice cream!.

When you will visit Timisoara you must see the Unirii square. It is the second most largest and importent in the city. It has its own style, pretty colorful buildings, they are also very old and in the middle of the square there is a nice statue. In my opimnion its a beautiful Square that you should visit.

	Piata Unirii Tip Rating:

Piata Unirii

by Mique

This is so far my most favorite square in Romania. If i would ever write a book and be lost for inspiration, this would be the place i would like to go to, sit and write. It is a fairly large square with all around it beautiful 18th and 19th century houses. And there are 2 churches. A catholic cathedral facing the square and a serbian church that 'butts in' between the grand houses. On one side you can see a little fountain and when you pay attention to it, you'll see a lot of people going there to fill up plastic bottles with the fountain's water. It is true mineral water and can be drunk safely.

Unirii Square

by Dariana

Around the square there are buildings of a rare historical and architectural value : the Baroque Palace ( under restoration) the catholic Dome, the Orthodox Serbian Vicariat and its church, the House with lions – pity for this lions that needs a restoration.
In the spring the square is overrun by terraces ,spread all-over :beer, coffee, ice-tea ,ice-cream, everything to refresh the thirsty passenger.
Taste a coffee or a juice and the place make you an addicted to its atmosphere ,it is under your skin and you’ll return over and over.

Don't forget to taste Romanian beer, Timisoreana;-). The best place to do it is Unirii square. Other traditional Romanian beers are Ursus (the most famous, from 1879), Bucegi and Neumarkt.
The Romanian beer is known in Central and Eastern Europe for its taste and little price.
